My Best Wasn't Good Enough Lyrics

Let's say I'm feeling better
Let's say I'm feeling fine
Let's say I gave you all I had
And now I'm out of time
And it aches and it hurts and it burns
Oh it kills me

Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again

Now don't you call me baby
Just don't pretend you care
Save your sorry for yourself
When Judas takes you there,
and he will take you there

Once I really believed
There was nothing out there for the lost and lonely
But a voice in my head kept banging on my heart
Says you're not the only one
But it kills me

Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again

I'll do it all again

Tick, tock, you don't stop
You don't fade
You just stay
But I'll do it all again

I'll do it all again
But I'll do it all again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"says ur not the only one!" i discovered this song same time i ended my relationship with this guy. Dinand, the singer of Kane wrote this song, and wow! Impressive lyrics Dutch boy! Definitely about a breakup, it ended bitter, and though u prefer to move on, u cant deny that if given another chance ud make the same choices becoz of the intensity of the love u had.

"My best wasn't good enough" is such a sad thing - when you know you've given all but that's not enough... Makes you feel quite lousy...
